🎨 Co-operatively designing the funds
Designing our new funds collaboratively
The work would now take all the research done to date and move into a much more practical and collaborative design process to design funds that can be delivered under the new strategy.

We will design the process so that it involves young people, those with lived experience of some of the issues we might work on and those who would be at the other end of our funding processes. We would design it around them.
The process would follow and ideation and iteration journey, using the practical research from the previous stage to inform an inspire us.
We would do this through:
